About Fort Mahere.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In reading
the columns of The NATIONAL TRIBUNE il is
impossible TO enumerate the different regiments
and flags that were first in Fort Malone. A
comrade of the 9th Mich. gave description
Of the capture. Speaking of the First Brigade
First Division, Ninth Corps he said it was
composed Of the 9th Mich. 37th and 35th
Wis. l09th n. Y. and 5lst Pa. That is correct
as far as he went, but he left out an orgauiza-
ton that was in that brigade and division
from July, 1862, till the close of the war, and
that was the 9Th Mich, which had the advance
on the morning Of April 2, 1866, and tore down
the rebel abatis in front of the fort, aud was
first to enter the fort by climbing over the top
The Sixth Corps claims to have been first
inside but these writers are mistaken. That
morning a charge was made all along the line,
aud the boys know we had pretty long line
in front Of Petersburg. There were two forts
on the rebel side with similar names: Fort
Malone, which the above brigade assaulted,
and little further to the left Fort Mcmahon,
which the Sixth Corps captured. Between the
forts was a battery-almost fort-and the left
of our brigade captured that; but the 9Th
Mich, being on the right Of the brigade, was
directly in front Of Fort Malone, and was the
first in that fort. There were no better fight
ing men in the whole army than in our bri.
gade. should not have written this, but
have read 80 much in regard TO that fort,
don't like TO have any Of the facts left out

known in the Church Kalendar as the
Epiphany, which is celebrated Jan. 6.
Suggestions:
1. Do your part. Go to Christ. He aids
those coming; lights their way clears their
road.
2. Be devout, and you will not be troubled at
the prospect Of Christ coming. The evil are
terrified to think the Redeemer is at hand.
(Mal, %; Rev, 1:7)
3. Honor Christ though you be singular
Never mind if the great refuse to notice him.
(St. John, 3 23.l What q contrast between the
wise men and Herod Perhaps when they
started for the West many called theirs "a
fools Grand"
A. There are two sides-Herod's and the
MagHs.
3. Work for the heather. Salvation is for
the Gentiles.
6. Bring gifts to Christ. Give him service,
prayers, hymns, love. pennies, dollars. Give
him your hearts and your money.
z. Go to Christ now. It is easy. He is at
| hand. You will have no long journey.
| 8. Trust God. He can oyerturn the devices
| Of evil men.
| 8. Do not tell others the way to Christ and
| yourself decline to go to him. Dob, .: IL;
Isa, Al: 25.)
| 10. Have faith. The Magi believed. Though
many discOuragements befell them, they per-
sisted till they reached the Babe.

A Busler Replies to Gen. Wiley.


EDITOR NATIONAL tribune: In Gen.
Wiley's article on the battle of Chickamauga,
he says:
It will thus be seen that Baird who held the
real point of danger. had no reserve whatever with
which to meet the anticipated attempt to turn our
left. and what was worst of all his left brigade was
the Regular Brig 1de, commanded by King had
been the worst cut up and demOriliZed OF any brt-
gade in our army in the previous day fight.
/ admit that we were badly cut up but deny
most emphaticaliy that we We're demOralized;
and worse things might have happened to Baird
than TO have had the Regulars at his left. i
remember well when Beatty's Brigade was
driven back that the Regulars stood firm and
repulsed the attack in front, then jumped the
works and fred back in the rear aud aided
Vanderveers troops in repeiliHg the enemy that
was pursuing Beatty's fleeing troops. i assert
further that those "demOralized Regulars"
never gave one inch the whole day. Where we
took cur stand early in the morning. there we
stood and repealed every attack. For few
moments only there was a little confusion, but
the pathetic tones of the bugle calling ." to the
color" soon quieted all. But we yielded no
ground whatever. Commanded by King" he
says. 1t was no detriment to be commanded
by John HI. King. for Drawer more efficient
man never commanded a brigade. i always
thought, and still believe, that had it not been
for King and his demOralized Regulars" at
the moment of Beatty's defeat at that moment
would have commenced the naturalization OF
the Fourteenth Corps. But the frmness of the
demoralized Regulars" prevented it.--W. j.

This little fodder plant has taken such a mar
vellOns hold of the people, il has provoked more
discussion than anything of its kind ever
known. Its discoverer has been the mark for
criticism from everybody, while the Moxie has
been quietly capturing the women. Drinking
a large amount seems 10 leave no disturbance.
At the same time the cynics say il is coca, CO.
caine, arsenic, strychnine, and alcohol in "A new
disguise. Meanwhile its discoverer an emil
nent physician, offers ST., 900 10 any chemist
or other person who will find either or any
other ingredient in IL more injurious than win
ter-green or common bitter-rOOt, which those
who have tried il accept as a fact. Its effect is
said 10 be quite remarkable, though the Moxie
plant which is all Of il that can produce the
result, is as tasteless and harmless as grass.
The nervous, weakly women flock after il like
mad, and il is said by them 10 stop nervous
ness at once, and give them double powers Of
endurance, while IL neither acts like nor leaves
reaction like a stimulant, nor loses It's effect
like a medicine. 1t is said 10 remove nervous
and other complaints by making the nerves
strong enough 20 control the functions of the
body properly when the cause of ill-health dis
appears, while medicine forces the functions OF
the body leaving the nerves weak from being
compelled 10 oyertask. IL il can take the place
OF drugging and stimulating. il has come to
stay, and many Of the doctors say il actually
does. After thirteen or fourteen months on
the market its sale Is said 10 be the largest ever
known. The large cities arc talking .Moxie
forever, and every nervous woman or over
worked person thinks il is the last half OF
everything that has just been found. Poor

Fremont in Missouri.

EDITOR NATIONAL tribune: I notice an
article from COmrade VIM. McEvay stating
that in his opinion Gen. Pope handles Gen.
Fremont rather roughly, or in other words does
not give sufficient credit TO Gen. Fremont for
the way he managed affairs N Missouri in 1861.
have q faint recollection of being in Missouri
at that time, and carrying gun in defense Of
the Union. About the 10th OF September, 1861,
found myself in the beautiful little city OF
Lexington, on the banks of the Missouri, hold
ing the honorable position Of high private in
the 23d Ill.
We were sent from jefferson City to Lex
ingtOn by direct orders from Gen. Fremont, to
hold that point until further orders These
orders were faithfully carried out By Col Multi
gan, but when it became plain to the latter that
Gen. Price was marching on to Lexington with
an overwhelming force, he made the fact known
to Gen. Fremont, who should have been aware Of
it before he received Col Mulliganis dispa ches
20 that effect for Gen. Price was moving an army,
or rather an organized mob, of somewhere in the
neighbOrhOOd of $1,000 men. Gen. Fremont
should have kept an eye on the movements Of
Price, but in fact / think he deceived Col.
Mulligan aud thereby drew US into one of tho
worst serapes that was experienced during the
whole war. His reply to Col. Muligan's dis
patches was: Hold Lexington at all hazards.
You will receive reinforcements in time"
This led Col. Mulligan to prepare for coming
events, and that gallant officer determined to
give Gen. Price the best he had in the shop.
The promised endorsements never came, and
Col. Mulligan and his gallant band were Sacri-
feed and deceived on the ILL., lated field of Lex
ington, after one of the hardest and most I'M
even struggles of the war; lasting for three days
and two nights without food or drink. Col Null
ligan, after the last round of cartridges was
exhausted was obliged to strike his colOrs.
Any person who knows anything about Missouri
affairs in 1861 knows that Fremont could have
reinforced Malligan at Lexington. i believe
that if we hal had more Popes and less Ere
mOnts in Missouri in 1861, the Union cause
would have been greatly benefited in that State.

What Would the World Do

without woman? asks the essayist who starts
out to say something new on this ft-treated
subject. OF course. the human element of the
world would not exist without woman, so the
question is gratuitous It would have been far
more sensible TO ask What would the world
do without the salvation of woman, without a
panacea for her physical ills and a cure for her
peculiar diseases. In word, what would the
world do without DIR. Pieree's Favorite Pre-

The fact that good many newly arrived Con-

their rooms before retiring at night has been
widely commented on, but the wrong reason for
such action has uniformly been assigned. II is
not because Of their want OF Knowledge OF the
ways and conyeniences OF the world that these
things are done. The Washington gas Is 20 poor
